IIRR joins the global community in recognizing this #InternationaDayofPlantHealth for our planet and people. 🌍🌱 Plant health is not just about protecting crops; it's about safeguarding our food security, preserving biodiversity, and promoting sustainable development.
IIRR joins the World Health Organization and others in celebrating World Health Day 2024. In line with this years theme, 'My Health, My Right', IIRR strives to make adequate healthcare the right of rural farmers, women, and youth. Read more about our work: iirr.org
On the Int'l Women's Day, let’s recognize the pivotal role women play in shaping our world, particularly in pastoralist and farming communities. Let's celebrate these stories and strive for a world where every woman's contributions are valued and acknowledged. #InspireInclusion
IIRR President Peter Williams and Board Member Bhavya Kapoor recently visited IIRR headquarters in the Philippines, spending a day with dedicated staff and experiencing first-hand the life-changing work being done to uplift rural communities. #LeadershipInAction #Community #IIRR
Feb 6th marks the Int'l Day of Zero Tolerance for Female Genital Mutilation (FGM). IIRR empowers rural girls with life skills, providing safe spaces for conversations about gender equality and helping young women navigate challenges like FGM and child marriage. #hervoicematters
Clean energy is key to reducing emissions and tackling energy poverty. Today we reflect on SDG 7, aiming to ensure access to modern, affordable, reliable, and sustainable energy for all by 2030. By promoting clean energy, we can protect the planet without leaving anyone behind.
IIRR celebrates today’s International Day of Education. Investing in education fights poverty, empowers rural communities, and supports sustainable development. Learn more about our educational initiatives: iirr.org #EducationForAll #SustainableDevelopment
IIRR is excited to announce our partnership with the Mastercard Foundation for the Ethiopia Mass Youth Employment in Apiculture (MaYEA) project, aiming to empower 1 million young individuals, 80% women, for self-employment in #apiculture over the next five years.
As we embark on 2024, let us unite in our commitment to create positive change in rural communities everywhere. May this year bring prosperity, health, and peace to every corner of the world. We will continue working towards a brighter and more sustainable future for all!
As we bid farewell to 2023, let's make a lasting impact together! Your year-end donation to IIRR can light up lives, spark change, and create a better tomorrow for rural communities. Join us in making a difference today. Every contribution counts! iirr.org/donate/
This holiday season, we are filled with gratitude for all the people and partners who make our work of empowering rural communities possible. From our IIRR family to yours, we wish you a very Merry Christmas and a happy holiday season!
Today – International Human Solidarity Day – is a reminder that international solidarity and cooperation are fundamental to creating a more sustainable, just, and equitable world. At IIRR, we believe that today is a day to celebrate the unity that exists in diversity.
IIRR-Cambodia, in collaboration with CARD and the Alliance of Bioversity and CIAT, recently hosted a groundbreaking consultation workshop on Nutrition-Sensitive Agri-Food Systems in the Mekong Delta. Read more about this inspiring dialogue here: ow.ly/uyj450Qjqh2
As #COP28 concludes, IIRR emphasizes the promising strides made in financial aid, renewable energy, and regenerative agriculture. However, we recognize that the path toward forging a more sustainable and equitable world is far from complete. May we remain focused on these goals!
Our food systems are responsible for 30% of GHG emissions, 80% of deforestation, and more than 70% of freshwater use. Our food systems should not be part of the problem but instead a part of the solution. We must transform food systems to be sustainable for generations to come.
Int'l Mountain Day highlights the importance of mountains and their role in providing crucial resources, supporting biodiversity, and sustaining the livelihoods of millions of people. Responsible and inclusive development can contribute to the well-being of these communities.
On this #HumanRightsDay, we celebrate the inherent dignity and equal rights of every human being and reflect on the fundamental principles that unite us as a global community. Let us join together and renew our commitment to fostering a world of justice, equality, and freedom.
Day 10 of #COP28 focuses on nature, land use, and oceans. Amid climate talks, IIRR urges for collective action to preserve ecosystems, promote sustainable land use, and ensure the well-being of rural communities.
#COP28 Day 9: Youth. IIRR emphasizes the need to dedicate resources to address the disproportionate impact of climate change on children. We must acknowledge that every child has the right to live in a clean, healthy, and sustainable environment to achieve their full potential.
